Chapter three hundred and seventy seventh for help and embarrassment
Hearing Zhang Zhenhua's teasing words, Xiong Dazhen, who had been taciturn since he came in, couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "Old Zhang, please stop teasing me. The military region's dressing task is so heavy this year, and now I'm just worried that I won't be able to
After completing the tasks assigned by the military region, how can I still think about rest? Besides, I came to the Northeast to do work, not to rest."
After saying that, Xiong Dazhen turned to Yang Zhen and said: "No. 1, if Lao Zhang is here to complain, I am here to ask for help. Manpower, what we need most now is manpower. Not the farmers who have just put down their hoes.
Not to mention those illiterate rickshaw drivers who were pulling rickshaws just yesterday."
"What I want are people with some level of education who can quickly get on the job after a short period of training. No. 1, I now need at least 200 college graduates in mechanics, metallurgy, electromechanics and physics. I'll do it again.
Without manpower, I can’t guarantee the next step of work on the 1st.”
"We have completed reverse mapping of the Japanese Type 91 Type 105 cannon according to the deployment of the military region, but it has been unable to be mass-produced. Although there are high-quality steel materials from the United States, the monthly output is still less than ten after many efforts. For the Japanese
The imitation of Japanese mountain cannons also has this problem."
"Of course, this is because we have previously focused most of our energy on the more urgently needed 57mm and 23mm anti-aircraft guns, 14mm anti-aircraft machine guns, and the development of the 57-mm recoilless rifles.
Production also affects the imitation of these two types of artillery."
"In view of the fact that the military region has always maintained a certain amount of artillery reserves, and a large number of artillery pieces were captured during the battle. Mountain field guns and other types of artillery were not the most urgently needed equipment. Therefore, we shifted the focus of production to more
Urgently needed anti-aircraft weapons and anti-tank weapons."
"But with the construction of new factories and the arrival of new machinery and equipment in the arsenal, the shortage of talents can only become more and more serious. When will the talents you promised me arrive? Especially the talents in metallurgy and machinery.
, we are in urgent need now.”
"Also, can you allocate some of this year's high school graduates to me? No need to be more, just a thousand people. American experts and technicians are already in place, and now we need to train our own technicians. And new machinery and equipment from the military factory have arrived
, a large number of educated workers are needed.”
"No. 1, talent is the foundation of all industries. If we don't seize the time for training, I'm afraid it will be too late. At the very least, after these factories are put into use, we must have our own technical personnel. Also, those new machines in the arsenal
The equipment also needs people to operate it."
"Without people, nothing can be done. Modern industry needs literate workers. Not those big guys who are still taking literacy classes and know less than a basket of words. Those machines brought by the Americans
I've seen it, and although some are second-hand, most of them should be the latest."
"Without a certain cultural level, it is difficult to master and meet the standards of use in a short period of time. And if we do not seize the opportunity to train our own technical personnel while American technical personnel are in the base area. Once these machines and equipment are damaged, we must rely on
There is simply no way we can repair it with our current strength."
Hearing Xiong Dazhen's request, Yang Zhen couldn't help but feel headaches. Two hundred college students in metallurgy, machinery, electromechanical, and physics were easy to solve. The first batch of talents secretly gathered in the enemy-occupied areas and the Kuomintang-controlled areas had already or
Either they arrived in Vladivostok from Shanghai, or they have been secretly transferred to Yan'an by the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, and they will be able to reach the base area in the near future.
Especially for the graduates of various missionary universities who stayed in the occupied areas, it is difficult to find a job after graduation unless they become traitors or obtain the qualifications to study abroad. And most of these graduates of missionary universities, although they study in schools managed by foreigners,
After all, they are all hot-blooded young people, and few of them are willing to become traitors. Moreover, Americans do not want schools run by their own churches to serve the Japanese.
With the acquiescence of the U.S. government, and even the help intentionally or unintentionally. After the efforts and strict screening of underground party organizations, Shanghai, Peking and several areas where church universities are concentrated, more than 2,000 candidates have been summoned since last year.
Previous science and engineering graduates.
Just at Yenching University, Fu Jen University, and St. John's University, the three best Christian universities left in the occupied areas, they enrolled four to five hundred graduates last year. Many even stayed in the occupied areas for various reasons.
The professor also prepared to come to the Northeast with his family and his family.
Unlike Shanghai, which still had a large number of concessions and had the largest port connection at that time, it was not an easy task to transport hundreds of college graduates out of Peiping, the North China Front garrison where the Japanese army was heavily fortified. Fortunately, although
It was very difficult, but with the assistance of troops from the Pingxi area, these people were finally safely sent to the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region garrison.
In order to alleviate the severe shortage of high-tech talents in Yang Zhen's hands, the central government even suggested that Yang Zhen study with the Americans during his stay in Yan'an and find ways to mobilize several American-owned missionary universities remaining in the occupied areas to the Northeast. The central government was responsible
Enroll students in occupied areas and transfer them to the Northeast.
After all, most of the more than ten Christian universities in China are run by Americans, except for a few like Fu Jen Catholic University, which are run by the Roman Church, and a few by the French. As long as the US government helps with the work, these universities can be relocated.
College shouldn't be a problem.
The central government believes that based on Yang Zhen's current relationship with the Americans, it is not without hope that the U.S. government can help with the work. If these church universities can really move to the Northeast, then
Together with students studying in the Soviet Union and college students trained by the Northeast Military Region, within a few years, the shortage of talents will be fundamentally alleviated.
In order to win the nod of the Americans, the central government even approved Yang Zhen to make considerable concessions. In addition to not interfering in internal affairs, the theology department was not allowed to recruit students outside the base area. When necessary, it could do some necessary work in other aspects.
Concessions. The central government even agreed that as long as these religious universities agreed to move to the Northeast, they would not establish open party organizations within the universities.
Although Yang Zhen also hopes to mobilize the few Christian universities left in the occupied areas in the United States to move to the Northeast, he knows that this hope is basically extremely slim. If these Christian universities could agree to come to the Northeast now, they would not stay in the Northeast in the first place.
The occupied areas had long since moved westward along with domestic universities.
Moreover, the U.S. government is not the National Government of China, and these church universities are not domestic universities directly under the Ministry of Education. With just a word from the government, and the unwillingness of teachers and students themselves to become slaves of the subjugated country and serve the invading army, these universities can be
move place.
These universities are only registered with the U.S. Department of Education, and jurisdiction is in the hands of various Christian churches. Those Christian churches have always regarded them as scourges and will never agree to move the universities to their own country. As long as the United States and Japan do not declare war, they would rather
If the Japanese cooperate, they will not take refuge in one of their own elements.
The fact that the central government is able to recruit so many students from Christian universities this time is thanks to the mercy of the Americans. Although this is a bit ironic, it is true. In China's own land, the recruitment of China's own university graduates depends on the Americans.
face, this is the reality of this era.
Moreover, the Japanese monitor these universities extremely closely. It is not easy to mobilize some professors and college students to come to the Northeast. If a university is to be relocated as a whole, no matter how secretive the action is, it will not escape the Japanese's sense of smell. The Japanese's ultra-high technology can be
It's not for free. If it is really exposed, it will be difficult to take action this year. Especially now that the relationship between the United States and Japan is serious, the Japanese may also regard these American-affiliated church universities as a thorn in their side.
In Yang Zhen's view, as long as Americans can allow themselves to secretly recruit graduates from their missionary universities and allow willing Chinese professors to come to the Northeast, it will be great. I guess the US government has also done a lot of work. If
Don't even think about relocating all these universities here. Not to mention not allowing seminaries to enroll students in the base area, even if these granite heads are allowed, they won't agree.
Although the starting point of the central government is good, it is just a dream that is basically impossible to realize. Moreover, not to mention that it is impossible to relocate these universities, even relocation is a troublesome matter. Not to mention Jiangbei's reaction, even managing it by yourself is very difficult.
difficulty.
In short, the starting point of the central government is good, but there is basically no hope of success in execution. To use a later saying, the ideal is full, but the reality is cruel. However, although the central government's idea cannot be successful, it has been successful several times.
Through hard work, and with the cooperation of the United States, we were able to recruit a lot of talents.
You must know that among the most famous Christian universities, the most famous ones are Yanjing University in Peking, Fu Jen University, and St. John's University in Shanghai. They are not only famous for their seminaries. They are also full of talents in the two subjects of liberal arts and sciences. More than 2,000 people were recruited from occupied areas.
The number of recent science graduates can be said to be almost all the graduates of last year's science and engineering majors from the missionary universities that remained in the occupied areas.
Once these people arrive together with the five to six hundred students who graduated from last year who were secretly mobilized from the Kuomintang-controlled areas, the situation of high-level talent shortage in the military region will be effectively alleviated. So for the 200 experts Xiong Dazhen requested, Yang Zhen
It cannot be denied. But the requirement of a thousand middle school graduates puts Yang Zhen in quite a dilemma.
If we put it in future generations, it would be quite embarrassing to say that we need a thousand people with only middle school education. I am afraid it will make people laugh, but this is the reality now. With only a thousand middle school graduates, Yang Zhen
The military leader in the Northeast region felt very strenuous.
In these days, education has become universal. A thousand middle school graduates, not to mention a county, even several counties put together may not be able to come up with it. In a situation where all the military branches are reaching out for people.
Come on, where can I find so many people for him at once?
The universal compulsory education system was only implemented last year. In addition to the number of graduates from junior high schools in various places who have continued their education this year, all services and local departments are eagerly waiting to allocate a thousand middle school graduates at once. At least in the
Before the three thousand people promised by the central government arrived, Yang Zhen was really at a loss what to do.
